  1. Layering makes lots of sense. It will be interesting to see how the Devs address it, if ever at all. Their list of things that need to be done is probably strictly from a coding standpoint and not one of reality, though. They see players getting too much meat from wolves and bears, so their solution? Infect the meat. Oh, don't reduce the nutrition of the meat or the amount of it! Just *poison* it. And you can't even *cook* it out.

    Your idea is grand, but I don't think it's going to come from Bohemia but probably a modder.


  2. So let's say there's no initial warning howl and you're attacked by wolves. Is the freeze on manipulating your inventory at that point a bug or a feature? Couldn't reload, couldn't drop weapons, both hotkeys and drag-and-drop a no-go. It seems to be a consistent theme with 'silent' wolf attacks for me. Anyone else with this experience?


  3. Reporting a hacker. I've been playing regularly on DayZ Livonia US - LA 5396, 85.190.157.111:10800. It holds a regular but low population. Someone playing on the server is using a hack to unearth buried crates on a fairly regular basis. I've buried them specifically to see if they would be discovered and it never fails, within a few days all unearthed.


  4. I know the effects of rain have been mentioned before. I would just mention in my experience the current set of effects is detrimental to playing the game. Sitting in a building waiting for it to stop is *not* fun and as rain applies an immediate deterioration of health not moving from shelter is the only means of controlling that. That's just dull.

    And I have a right to point to the whiners....

    Most of the posts in this thread have a terrible attitude and even lack basic civility towards the developers.

    Constructive feedback in EXPERIMENTAL thread will fix your least favorite bug faster.

    Repeat people pointing to the same bug with rude and entitled attitudes contribute nothing.

    Here's my constructive feedback. Since I cannot change the key bindings and they have no intention of fixing this from what I've read until 1.0, I will not play this game and contribute to any stress testing, bug finding, etc. because I *cannot* play the game. I'm left-handed and WASD doesn't work for me. So, along with the constructive criticism mentioned, I feel it's perfectly fine for me to mention that this sucks very, very much and irritates me equally as much.


  6. If any kind of full automatic pistols get put in it wont be to hard. I think there are a few real full automatic ones they could put in for up close rapid combat when snipping just wont cut it for mobs. Even an SMG or the equivalent AK 74U since it can fit in a pack like the MP5K would work wonders for a sniper against mobs.

     

    Glock 17 with a 100 round magazine.

     

    Glock 18

    Pistols and SMGs are a snipers best friend.

    I'm talking about keeping your stealth and the mobs upon mobs. A 30 round magazine won't cut it...


  7. Ya.... backpack full of ammo rattling around, gun clanking, another in your hand and wanting to be a ninja......

    Gear whores should be willing to pay a penalty, but I am talking about slow heel-to-toe movement, that thing we did sneaking into the house not to wake your parents...

  8. Still won't stop those that camp on cranes, buildings etc. They'll just relog if they see a swarm underneath them waiting for him to come down.

    I don't think so. Players don't have the patience to site someone, take the shot, log out ans log back in to try and find another player to shoot at. It might be clever, but it would also be boring as sin...


  9. 1. You get hit by rain, you are immediately soaked through. I thought this might just be a message bug, but I promptly start cooling off at the same time.

     

    2. "Promptly getting cold" and "You are freezing", then dying of hypothermia in full pristine gear? It's kind of suggests something went wrong with the  update.

     

    It's an Alpha, these things happen. This might be the first one that it makes me put it into unplayable Territory, simply because you do die within 15 minutes no matter what. It was suggested to me to play on Verilayer.com servers, and it does seem the problem does not exist there...


  10. just because you can doesnt mean you should 

    It's not that I think it should have such a plethora of specific items like the one pictured. It's the fact that scopes should be shared on it.


  11. I don't see a reason for this to exist ?

     

    In a world full of zombies that will beat the crap and bite me but who cares let me just lay down and pretend im dead.

    I'd say it would be realistic because it would be a free choice to do it. It won't prevent a double-tap from happening on you, but hey...
